Is the Tayron equipped with a dry or wet dual-clutch transmission?
1 Answers
The 1.4-liter version of the Tayron uses a dry dual-clutch transmission, while the 2.0-liter version is equipped with a wet dual-clutch transmission. Detailed information about dual-clutch transmissions is as follows: 1. In a dry dual-clutch transmission, the clutch connects the driving plate and the driven plate through air, directly contacting the engine flywheel. 2. A wet dual-clutch transmission uses oil to connect the driving plate and the driven plate, immersing the clutch plates in a sealed oil trough to absorb the heat they generate, significantly improving heat dissipation performance. This results in better performance in terms of shifting speed, fuel consumption, and comfort. 3. A dual-clutch transmission (DCT) has two sets of clutches in the transmission system, each connected to an input shaft—one controlling the odd-numbered gears and the other the even-numbered gears. This greatly reduces shifting time and increases efficiency, enhancing comfort during gear changes.
